Are you still the current sysinstall guru? I'd say there are at least a few of those now, but I can say that if the drives don't show up it's because they failed to open for some reason (libdisk(3)'s disk open routine runs down the list of possibilities and returns those targets which can be found). If they fail to open, it's generally because they're not really as "there" as the probe messages might have intimated. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
